I am planning to enroll in a dental assisting program in January. It is a 15 week program after which i will become certified. After i am certified and working as a dental assistant, how difficult is is to get accepted to a dental hygienist program at a community college? Any info you can give me about this field would be very helpful! Thank you so much.

I am a dental hygienist in PA. I want to move to either Florida or NC for warmer weather, but I am concerned I will be taking a pay cut. I work outside of Philly and would like to also live outside a city in either state. Also, what is rent like? Price of houses?

If a dental hygienist notices that a dentist forgot to put on a fresh pair of gloves between patients, would it be okay for her to say something to the dentist (in front of the patient)? What would be the best way to solve this problem? The dentist has done this on occasion before.
